Abstract
THE author has some original ideas on the working of the middle and inner ears, which he has illustrated by means of mechanical models. The book contains no account of recent work on the ear by other investigators, which is regrettable. It is difficult for the reader to solve for himself the problems which arise from an attempt to correlate the hypotheses put forward with the electrical effects which have been observed to occur when the ear is stimulated by sound.
